Hi everyone! I recently sailed aboard Symphony of the Seas as someone who follows a vegan diet. It was my first time sailing with Royal Caribbean (I've cruised with Princess, HAL, MSC and Carnival in the past) so I was excited to try the vegan and vegetarian offerings.
I sailed mid-December on Symphony of the Seas and they were testing out the new menus. The first main thing I noticed was that there wasn't a separate vegan menu. Instead, the vegan options were integrated into the regular menu. There were options for each course, starters, entrees and desserts.
We also dined at Johnny Rockets (but didn't venture into any other specialty restaurants as the options were never as good for vegans as the MDR), Windjammer, Solarium Bistro, and El Loco Fresh.
I've taken SO many photos of all the food, the menus, and basically everything I ate over the course of the week. The food was all really delicious, some of the best that I've had on any cruise ship! There were a couple of misses, but overall, it was awesome.
It would be wonderful if the cruise carried vegan cheese for the pizza and had some other vegan options on the specialty restaurant menus. And perhaps a few vegan desserts as grab-and-go options at the cafes. Otherwise, I was really impressed!
It's all shared over on my travel blog if you'd like to take a look! >> Royal Caribbean Vegan Guide on my travel blog.
